Random question for Everyone!

It mystifies me why so many ads and spam messages pop up. Would you, personally ever click on a spam or an add that promises "X tips to ..." whether it be burn body fat, fight whatever evils, etc? Who clicks on them? Someone must, don't you think? I see ads in Facebook now (I know they are trying to make money ...) but who is gonna lick on a photo of a spotty banana posted by some one or something they do not know????

"I always felt that when someone introduces you to the outdoors, you come to feel like you owe them something. ‘Cause what they really gave you is a lifetime of memories, and a lifestyle you’ll always love. Of course I suppose the best way to pay them back is to be that person for someone else. "

Not me! On Facebook it even names your friends who have liked this or that. I don't even believe that! Unless I actually speak to that person directly and get confirmation from them, I'd never click on anything like that.
My brother works in IT tech and he has taught me not to click on things like that. Even here at work, I'm scared to do updates sometimes. I always double check with the IT person first.

But yes, there MUST be people that do click them. Otherwise what would be the point of putting them there?

Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

what i dont like

I goto a news paper site and start to read a story about something then the screen flashes and up pops a add covering up the story so I cant read it so I close and reopen the browser and find the story again and the ad reappears so I never get to read the story cause its covered up by a popup. and the browser is supposed to have a popup filter but it fails a lot of the times.. the only way to get rid of popup is either click it or forget it. and then sometime the whole screen will slide off the screen when I try to read the headline and it slide all over the place over and over and over.. like cnn is bad at slider adds. and when you readjust to the story again it slides more or a popup. if I want a ad they should have a add site not cover up what your reading or trying to read ..I don't mind ads on the screen but quit covering up what I am trying to read. .. thank you for reading.. pat n Kerrie 20131126.0431
